Alberta New Energy MapShowcasing clean energy projects across the province

Alberta's New Energy Map showcases the variety of clean energy projects that contribute to the growth of Alberta’s economy by creating jobs and investment opportunities. The map highlights the multitude of new energy projects operating or under construction in Alberta from 2012 on. This is a living library. Its scope will expand as Albertans submit their own projects and continue to pursue new energy opportunities.

When it comes to concerns that adding solar and wind generation to the power grid will lead to increased bills for Albertans the facts are clear. The cost of electricity produced from solar technology has come down more than 90 per cent from 1983 to 2015. Wind has dropped 65 per cent over the same time.

The cost of solar and wind technology has been falling dramatically for decades, largely driven by increases in deployment of the technologies.
